Ex-military policeman Jack Reacher is a drifter. He’s just passing through Margrave, Georgia, and in less than an hour, he’s arrested for murder. Not much of a welcome. All Reacher knows is that he didn’t kill anybody. At least not here. Not lately. But he doesn’t stand a chance of convincing anyone. Not in Margrave, Georgia. Not a chance in hell.

Review of 'Killing Floor (Jack Reacher, #1)' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

Jack Reacher has an origin? I thought he always existed! Fun to see how Jack Reacher started, and he starts off well. Plot twists, adventure, man-takes-on-the-world stuff that could never really happen, but is fun to read. I did find myself wishing he'd change clothes more often in this one, but other than that it's classic Reacher and a terrific thriller.
